Hanovia to supply UV systems to Chinese manufacturer
UV disinfection specialist Hanovia has won a contract to supply UV disinfection systems to a pharmaceutical manufacturer in China. The UV systems will be used for ultra-pure process water disinfection.
UV technology has many applications in the pharmaceutical industry, including process water disinfection, TOC (total organic carbon) reduction, ozone and chloramine destruction, and dechlorination.
UV systems are easy to install on existing pipework and require minimum disruption and site preparation. Depending on the level of use, the only routine maintenance required is changing the UV lamps every 12-24 months, a simple procedure that can be carried out by on-site personnel. Once installed, a plant can be kept operational 24 hours a day, without the necessity of shutting down the system for routine sanitation and sterilisation.
